Rough-leaf goldenrod
Solidago patula
Rough-leaf goldenrod is a tough, low-maintenance native perennial that thrives in moist, partly shaded spots such as woodland edges, wetland margins, and rain gardens. Once established, it requires minimal care and spreads gradually to form attractive colonies with bright yellow late-season blooms. It is an exceptional pollinator plant, supporting bees, butterflies, and moths through fall when few other plants are in bloom.
